The Chinese government have pull the plug on NBA because of Houston coach twit supporting Hong Kong protesters. "Fight for freedom, stand with Hong Kong". The question facing NBA now is to choose between freedom of speech or access to the so called big market.
The NBA has already chooses the big market and apologies to the Chinese government. Is a disgrace to see western icon like NBA apologies to a communist state because they want to expand their brand. It means greedy companies like apple can't use the word "FREEDOM" in china or Hong Kong.
